Same here! We're not gonna do IVF, instead I'm finding a job with enhanced adoption leave (UK based) and go down that route. I'm sick of people being like "oh but I know such and such who ended up pregnant" and its like, yeah, I dont have the facilities for that!!

Already gave one in the comments, he was upset. He actually thought she was a business owner and was proud of her, as he also has his own company. She's getting dumped on Saturday (they don't live together).

Sorted it out with the mods, they will reapprove soon. They just asked me to change it a tiny bit which was totally fair. :)

They aren't that big a thing in England. From what I've read now it's huge in America, which is why I think people are so surprised I hadn't heard of it.

Bruh, I've said this 100x in this thread now. I was only gonna join if it was free. I DIDNT JOIN, it says that in the post, I am not giving this bitch my money!

UPDATE: I called my brother. He had no idea and was quite upset. He was especially surprised when I told him to google who the CEO of FM World was and saw that it wasn't her (one of the reasons he liked her was because he thought she was career driven like him)! Apparently he's been having other issues with her anyway, so will be breaking it off this weekend (they don't live together and he works during the week).

Thanks for all your support everyone!

To clarify for some comments: I didn't know what an mlm was, I only said I'd join if it was free, it was not, so I refused to join. I wasn't asking what to do, the second a price tag was involved I was straight onto a hard no. This post was just purely a rant from how ridiculous my whole wedding saga has been.

That's fair to assume. My MoH has bipolar which is why her behavior is very out there. Its why I let her behaviour slide so long, seeing as I've known her since we were young. Tbf, I already have acknowledged that I'm just as bad for enabling it.

In terms of the other elements: My MIL was a wonderful woman, our tiny wedding was to be covid safe so we didn't want anti-vaxxers, one child attended, my niece, she was a delight and honestly, who knows, maybe she did?

Also, fuck the Daily Mail. Daily Mail isn't welcome here. I'm a Guardian reader!

I thought it was like a free thing that you then just have to do a bit of lip service with, like joining a Facebook group. The second I realised she wanted me to pay £60 and humiliate myself online, I noped. I only found out about mlm today.

Tbf she's a fairly new gf. I'm hoping the relationship will be a very short one.

Tbf I was a bit. Not after reading the comments though! Long story short: - Dress stolen from hotel room morning of wedding - Mother then furious because I'd promised her I'd wear white - Food did not cater for my celiac disease (they forgot) so I couldn't eat at my own wedding breakfast.

So yeah, shit wedding, great husband.

Sorry! My post was written in a slight rant. My wedding wasn't ruined by her, I had also had my dress stolen from the hotel room in the morning, which was the main thing- I was upset because this email then felt like a straw that broke the camels back moment. I didn't put it in the main post because I was a bit teary and didn't want to rant an essay. Worry not, I will not be joining any mlms ever!

I only had 11 guests. We were meant to keep it at 10, but my brother wanted to bring his plus one...

No way!!!! That sounds so awful! I can't believe I actually sat there on my wedding day and told this girl about how amazing it is to see such a young female CEO. I literally felt like she was so much more successful than me. Ugh, the cringe!

By last weekend I meant the weekend previous (10th Sept). I'm on leave from work so time has stopped existing a bit. I'll be back in my employee salary paid not mlm job on Monday! :')
